A new leaf

It’s a new school year in our house and with that brings a big change. My youngest is now in school and although I’m excited for her it’s been sort of sobering for me. I know so many of you can relate.

Anyway, things around this blog may close up. I have had such a fun 4+ years, but I just can’t keep up with posting and all the other unbelievable, creative blogs out there. Time marches on…

If you want to keep up with me and are addicted to Facebook as I am…I’ll see you there!

I think we’d all be willing to patiently wait for intermittent postings. I love your blog and will miss it dearly. Do I really have to start over with December ‘03?

I’m happy for you — change can be good and sometimes knowing when to let something go is so important. I sure will miss checking your blog though, I have enjoyed it so much.

Sad to hear the news but change and transition are always refreshing. I decided to “turn a new leaf” too and made the same decision a couple of weeks ago. (I would say I’d follow ya on FB but I’m transitioning out of that one too.) :)

I love the Kidding-Around blog. I’m not going to tell you what to do (on the internet), but, as the only person in your blogroll, I think you should keep it going.

I understand that it’s hard to keep up, but I encourage you to keep it going. I have enjoyed watching your children grow up. You have inspired me and my family to be more creative. I have loved all the beautiful clothes, crafts, recipes and desserts you have shared over the years. Good luck!

I’d miss seeing you here :) I love your kids back to school photos! They’ve begun to mark the beginning and end of the school year for me! Of course, I’ll see you on FB.

Oh, bummer. I love your blog. But I completely understand. Sometimes I wonder why I spend the time keeping mine up when I could just be enjoying what other people are doing.
Take care, Carol. Stop by Penny Carnival now and then. :)

What’s up! I wanted to let you know about a great new site where you can share lists of your favorite local businesses with your friends… it’s called AlikeList.com.

You can easily create and save lists of your most trusted US businesses, quickly find the right local businesses to save time and money, invite friends, share lists and connect each other with businesses too.

AlikeList.com delivers the same level of trust as word-of mouth but it’s online. It’s the fasted way to get trusted recommendations whenever and wherever you need them. The recommendations, and their rankings, are personally relevant just for you.

Check it out!

http://www.AlikeList.com

Thanks!
